Music
Music is a powerful thing. I fully believe it has to be considered a major part of the human experience. I never met anyone who did not like music in some form or another, which is a good thing. Music is something that resonates on something much deeper than just the flesh.
I fully believe music is an example of people having souls. I went into the human soul in the post The Weight of the Soul, but only in so far as I brought up the debate. I mentioned music, but only briefly. In all honesty, I think that music just about settles that debate.

The Digital Age is Here.
Its so amazing how the digital age has changed just about everything we can comprehend. Besides making the generation gap far more evident. I still find it hard to imagine that I now have friends all over the world. I remember the old days of ‘pen palling’ and how it was such a huge failure with me and my friends, now its alive and well more than ever....
But, I did mention that generation gap thingy. Many people don’t see how you can have honest to goodness friends who are so far away. I wonder if its just the idea of not getting the whole instantaneous world wide connection, or the thought of sharing personal and intimate issues with someone you have never met personally can possibly happen.

Moralist Values, and the lack of.
I’m so thankful that my parents laid the groundwork for my moral outlook on life. I was taught right from wrong, taught faith in a higher power, and gained insight on how children should be raised. Moral values are key to living a good, solid life, full of the happiness I have found with Dan.
I am astounded now, how people simply have no morals, and yet they still exist just fine. One of the biggest things I don’t understand is how some families seem to teach these morals to one kid, then celebrate another kid not having any morals worth repeating. Admittedly, I only have one child, but I’d be damned if I favored the one that broke laws, both man made and those of a higher power, over the kid that tried hard to make it in life with their morals held high.

Addressing my current state.
I’m tired of spreading hate, and tired of having hate spread. Its truly a shame when it hits so close to home, in a more than literal sense there. I mean, I have such happiness in my life, but then as I’ve always know, when people see something that’s truly beautiful, they try to destroy it.
I’ve seen it happen time and time again, to so many people. Everything is going great, and people just start picking. There’s been songs about it, there’s been songs about the condition of people just having to cause drama to keep themselves occupied. I’ll never fully understand it.

(poem) - Envoy of my happiness
How did I not know
My life was so bad
Before I had you
As my bride?
The day to day
Meandering pace
Of simply avoiding
The mirror’s face
